Ancient Knowledge - what exactly does it do?

Wavek

This passive says it works on single target abilities. Does this include single target DoTs (warden Swarm for example)? Does it include either Light or Heavy attacks (or both)? I know it requires a Destro Ability slotted of course.

Fire will buff lights and heavies. Lightning will not buff the lights/heavies but will buff the AOE splash damage of a heavy.

It will buff single target dots. Fire will even buff the periodic damage of some AOE abilities that treat the periodic damage as single target damage. But You'd have to search/ask around about that one because I'm not an expert on it.

When in doubt, test it out on a dummy, the numbers will be apparent

Good to know on the dots etc. I'm going to test the light/heavy thing later. People in my guilds are saying it is abilities only and not light/heavy attacks for Flame staff. I cant seem to find a consistent answer anywhere so I will try it myself on a target dummy.

maybe I'm wrong and it's changed. but the best way to do it is just test it out very easily - slot/unslot a destro ability and LA a dummy.

I know that FoO is stI'll calculated as a AOE
